Cynthia Trogisch-TeixeiraApril 18, 2017As a fried chicken aficionado, I searched for fried chicken & this one came up as #2. I would have to disagree. Everything LOOKED good but was sadly lacking in taste and seasoning.Donuts were decent.
ReALTOAugust 20, 2012"I had never tasted fried chicken that had the perfect balance of crispiness, seasonings, and juiciness until now" http://gorealto.com/blog/?p=733
Katie EytchSeptember 6, 2016Get the 3 piece chicken box bc you get chicken, a biscuit, and a side !! You can always mooch a waffle bite from a friend ;)
Manda ShettletonJanuary 24, 2015The burnt end black beans and chicken biscuit are what my dreams are made of (and also my hangover meals). I don't think the waiters give a shit but oh well. You're here for the food.
Casey SchoonoverOctober 24, 2014Of course the fried chicken is awesome but the catfish!! Don't sleep on the catfish!! And get some collards.
Rahul GuptaJanuary 8, 2018The fried chicken sandwich is possibly the best food when you're drunk, it sobered me up and was super tasty!
Sarah SolovelyAugust 2, 2019The three piece fried chicken is delicious!! I loved the homemade biscuit with the whipped honey butter!!!- Sabrina DukesNovember 7, 2015The donuts! I'm not much of a donut fan, but the donuts here are delish. U might need to share though, they're huge!
Erika GrijalvaOctober 15, 2014The chicken 'n waffles is a delight, very juicy chicken. The biscuits with gravy is also delicious.
Barclay DouglasJune 9, 2010Best chicken in New York. I get the basket everytime with collar greens. Comes w/ hot sauce so ask for w/o if you struggle with heat. Try not to go peak hours, you'll be waiting. Closed 4 to 5pm
Micah LatterJanuary 7, 2012Great chicken biscuit, but got without all the sauce. Also, pies are not great. My table tried four and none were fantastic. Still a cute spot with good food.
mary nahDecember 27, 2016Excellent food but especially great place and location. People are very kind.
Apart from having top-notch fried chicken, the insane burger here is actually my favorite burger in NYC. And all of the sides are great. Cash only!
Ricky SherrillSeptember 20, 2014The fried chicken, shrimp and grits, pulled pork, & the brisket. Can't go wrong with any of them.- Christopher TaiFebruary 22, 2015Chicken and Waffles, Fried Pickles, Mac n Cheese, and Collard Greens with Pork are my favorites!
Erin SheaApril 12, 2011This place is awesome. On a sunny day, head to the bak patio and start with the fish tacos! (and from there, you'll want to order...basically everything on the menu).
Emily WilsonSeptember 5, 2015Mac & cheese should most definitely be your side of choice w/ the fried chicken box
- Ike RuffinSeptember 2, 2012They have the best fish n' grits in New York. Chicken and waffles with strawberries and cinnamon butter are a great choice.
Can't go wrong with the Fried Chicken Box, so much food! However, they do taken an awful amount of time brining it out.- M KNovember 11, 2012chicken biscuit chicken biscuit chicken biscuit chicken biscuit chicken biscuit chicken biscuit chicken biscuit chicken biscuit chicken biscuit chicken biscuit chicken biscuit chicken biscuit

Joseph EylesApril 11, 2018The Cuban Sandwich is incredible, fried chick is top notch and great pale ale on tap too
Amina HussainMay 13, 2014Chicken biscuit is great. Good desserts too. Come here expecting to leave feeling very full. Food is very heavy.
The chicken Sammy is a great way to mix it up from the staple chicken box. Sub Mac n cheese for the fries for $2
Janet LinJuly 11, 2018Fried green tomato sandwich - blfgt. Bourbon pecan pie is heavy on the bourbon, as it should be
Mike JacobsonSeptember 6, 2013Besides the chicken, get the collard greens. Best I've ever had. This was place was so good I literally bought the shirt.
chris brownSeptember 8, 2012chicken, chicken, chicken! ... literally chant worthy. don't forget a side of their signature mac + cheese with hot sauce, yuuuum.- Kathryn YuDecember 21, 2011Avoid the fried chicken and waffles. Their twist on this dish is buckwheat waffles with fresh fruit. Unnecessary and does not constitute true chicken and waffles!
- TheGreatone MillsMay 25, 2015The best chicken joint that I ever had and for the others that are hating do not be mad because your chicken joint is not doing as good as them they can't help that yeah I said it
Chicken & waffles is on the dinner menu now. Do yourself a favor and order it and slather it in maple syrup.
Freka SexyFebruary 2, 2015This place has delicious fried chicken, pancakes, pies, biscuits with gravy, etc. It's a death trap though lol
Canada O'DayMarch 5, 2012The fried chicken was on point and this is coming from someone who grew up regularly on it. Love that the waffles are buckwheat, too.- Franco ColonApril 11, 2010The Chicken Box is amazing, some of the best fried chicken around. Don't forget a side of Mac n Cheese which comes with hot sauce on it.
Katie PJanuary 28, 2012Love love love the chicken sammie. Also chili cheese fries? ALWAYS YES. Wish the service was slightly more on par with the incredible food though
Courtney R.August 3, 2014Hard to get a table but WELL WORTH THE WAIT! The Chicken & Waffles will change your life.
fried chicken, fried catfish, mac & cheese, biscuits, donuts, pie, mashed potatoes, baked beans, smoked pork collard greens
Sarah TierneyDecember 14, 2014Amazing chicken biscuits with honey and hot sauce. Also, their donuts are pretty fantastic.
Alex RobertsonNovember 26, 2023Honestly the chicken dinner for delivery is really good, although I’d skip the mashed potatoes
New York HabitatOctober 21, 2011Tucked away in Williamsburg is this scrumptious soul food haven. Keep things simple and go for the chicken and waffles with a biscuit.
Breakfast is great here. I had sunny side up eggs with home made bread, will come back many times.
Colleen S.September 23, 2014Order a sugar raised donut and chicken biscuit for breakfast. Your stomach will thank you!
Josh RNovember 18, 2017Chicken Biscuit all the way and homemade pies! Pass on the Mac and Cheese though.
WyngspanJanuary 27, 2014Chicken biscuit or a donut for breakfast? That is a tough decision for anyone to make. Pies 'n' Thighs gives you both options. http://bit.ly/LfvP4J
The chicken biscuit is yummy. Ask them for extra hot sauce.
EatMeDrinkMeNYCApril 24, 2014You will have serious first world problems deciding between the chicken biscuit, chicken box or Super Bowl.

Pies ’n’ Thighs started in 2006, in the shadow of the Williamsburg Bridge. We took over a beer storage closet and transformed it into a tiny kitchen with six stools, serving huge donuts, two-napkin smoked pork sandwiches and salty, crispy fried chicken.
